It was for these reasons that Fiberglas was organized, the answer declared, and not for any purpose of monopolizing trade .or commerce. It was declared that the action of Owens-Illinois and Corning in declared separately involved Fiberglas organizing knowledge, to necessary was provide skill, the scientific and management necessary to bring about the development of their glass fiber products in quantity and quality and at a price which would permit their distribution and sale resources competitive markets. Without this action, the of glass fiber products might never in development reply declared, the have been carried entirely limited stages or might have been dropped as commercially unsuccessful. Denying any activities designed to monopolize trade, the beyond its early answer that, on the contrary, their activities have assisted or possible the commencement, enlargement or strengthening of many, enterprises1 which manufacture, fabricate, sell or distribute glass fiber products. Supporting their denial that any of the defendant companies attempted to monopolize manufacture of glass fiber products, the answer showed that since October 1946 all Fiberglas patents for the production of such products have been made available by Fiberglas for licensing at reasonable royalties to other concerns wtihout re¬ strictions as to use, geographical area or otherwise. Actually a number of these licenses have been granted and Fiberglas is ready willing to grant others, the answer declared. 1948 government allegation that certain, foreign manufacturers for for September— j,he contracts from Net ry. 5,766,604 income— 3,057,418 3,343,100 Cost of Sell.,' 1,522,192 2,415,811 3,843,055 from from Net ry. 168, 101,066,148 23,882.944 19,259,893 13,003,826 13,638,350 11,766,942 7,922,096 income— oper. 91,010,265 111,567,497 113,623,009 railway railway 27,882,929 18,599,747 Profit Federal rock operations Northern totaled States 65.482,000 Power this kwh., Co.

Specifically the answer pointed out that there is no separate field of trade or commerce in glass fiber products which is, or could be, the subject of a monopoly. The companies described in their answer the variety of glass fiber products which are produced—such as mineral wool insulation, yarn, pipe wrap, battery retainer mats and replacement air filters—and pointed out that products made and sold by Fiberglas are distributed in a number of markets and that they compete with products made of other materials as well as with glass fiber products made by others. Denying the charge made by the government that they have monop¬ olized the manufacture and distribution of glass fiber products, the companies' answer asserted that there is no basis for the relief that the government asked for in its complaint. Fiberglas, Owens-Illinois and Corning in their consolidated answer denied that they dominate or control the manufacture and sale of glass fiber products. They pointed out that from 1941 through 1946 Fiberglas sales figures, which were filed with the answer, reflect the large demand of the armed forces for various Fiberglas thermal, electrical and acoustical insulation, filtration and other products in ships, aircraft, and other military equipment, buildings, canton¬ ments, barracks, manufacturing plants and others.—V. 168, p. 1907, As Profit Ey.—Earnings— $20,864; contingencies, $501,168; $4,25 cumulative ,?ar)' S1-662'300; common stock $1 par), $190 Penick & Ford, Ltd., by had results, 1696. p. and sinking The General interest Gross r.eSe/FVe 1 Net at notes $3,673,990; 1802.
